ez-open

Open all of the necessary files and websites for one task, easily. (Mac only)

The problem

When I want to start any task, whether its completing a homework assignment or working on a coding project, I have to open several websites, pdfs, etc. spread out across my computer. The time that these transitions take adds up!

The solution

With ez-open, you can assign groupings of files and websites, and open any number of groupings quickly and easily from the Terminal.

Example:

I want to work on problems 2 and 3 of my COMP 182 assignment and open up the main problem page. I simply type:

python ezopen.py 2 3 main

And this opens up the appropriate Overleaf, assignment webpages, and pdfs for these problems.

Usage

The first time running ez-open, type:

python ezopen.py setup firsttime

This will perform the normal setup procedure with extra intruction. Follow the instructions. From then on, whenever you want to open a grouping, type commands in the form

python ezopen.py keyword1 keyword2 keyword3

Where each keyword is one of the keywords set by you. Order doesn't matter!

Improvements

Currently working on several important options such as grouping the keywords and being able to edit the setup.
